The Tom Sullivan Show

Democratic Socialists won more races yesterday and the trend keeps growing. It will keep growing until enough Americans learn what every person who has actually lived under socialism already knows — don't go there. But the reason this is gaining traction is real. People can't afford homes, groceries are crushing budgets, student loans feel inescapable, and capitalism doesn't feel like it's working for a lot of struggling Americans right now. We address both the false solution and the real pain today. And Trump refused to sign the bipartisan housing affordability bill — we don't blame him. It wouldn't have lowered housing costs and might have made things worse. We explain why a bad bill is still a bad bill even with bipartisan support.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tom-sullivan-show--6632619/support.

Alan Greenspan, the Federal Reserve chairman who shaped American monetary policy for nearly twenty years, has died at 100. Before the Fed he was a jazz musician at Juilliard. Clive Davis, the music mogul who discovered Whitney Houston and signed Bruce Springsteen, has died at 94. Before the music business he was a bored corporate lawyer. Two unlikely paths, two enormous legacies, gone the same day. We pay tribute to both. Vice President Vance is proud that Iran agreed to IAEA nuclear inspections but General Jack Keane says the IAEA has been played by Iran before and could be again. And Keir Starmer resigned as UK Prime Minister today, the seventh PM Britain has lost in just ten years.

JD Vance is out there alone trying to sell the Iran MOU and the President is calling the distinguished list of conservative critics stupid. The list is long, the credentials are serious, and calling them stupid is not an argument. The stock market going up has nothing to do with the Iran deal — it is about corporate earnings and the AI boom and today we explain why. The White House drone terror plot was not discovered by the FBI or any law enforcement agency. A mother called police about her own son and saved potentially hundreds of lives. And Bernie Sanders thinks AI companies should share their profits with him despite contributing absolutely nothing to their success. That is called socialism. All of it today.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tom-sullivan-show--6632619/support.

Skeptical. That is the word Trump's own supporters are using about the Iran deal and today we explain why they are right to use it. A one and a half page memorandum of understanding that nobody is allowed to read. A president who is not going to Geneva to sign his own historic agreement even though he is just up the road. Washington and Tehran describing the same deal in completely opposite terms. If this was a win the President would be singing from the rooftops. The silence tells you everything. Then the FBI arrested a group of young men who planned to attack the White House south lawn UFC crowd with explosive drones. The ringleader is nineteen years old and said he was angry at the direction of the country. Chilling, close, and stopped just in time. All of it today, no filter.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tom-sullivan-show--6632619/support.

The Iran deal leaves the world's number one terrorism sponsoring regime completely in place. The skeptics are not being cynical — they are being honest. We hope to be proven wrong but history says otherwise and today we make the full case for why this looks like another can kicked down the road for the next president to deal with. Meanwhile FISA — America's legal authority to surveil foreign bad actors — expires tonight. It had bipartisan support for reauthorization until the Pulte ODNI announcement blew the coalition apart. Tonight America goes dark on foreign surveillance and we can thank the Pulte nomination for the security gap. And on a note that unites all of us — Sunday is Flag Day.
